UNSPSC 51461500: Medicinal herbs

This classification denotes herbs or plants with medicinal value.

UNSPSC 51461500 Medicinal herbs is a Class code that covers the procurement of botanical materials used in pharmaceutical, wellness, and clinical applications by state and local health agencies, correctional facilities, and public health departments. The code encompasses dried herbs, herbal extracts, standardized botanical preparations, and raw medicinal plant materials purchased for dispensary stock, clinical trials, inmate health programs, and public health initiatives. State and local governments buy under this code when sourcing materials for pharmacy operations, traditional medicine programs, nutritional supplementation in correctional settings, and evidence-based herbal therapeutics within public health systems.

No recent state or local contract opportunities appear in the available records for UNSPSC 51461500. This code sees minimal activity in state and local procurement channels, suggesting either limited demand for standalone medicinal-herb procurement through formal solicitation or absorption of these purchases into broader pharmacy, medical supplies, or nutritional-products categories under different UNSPSC codes. Business development professionals should verify whether opportunities in this space are tagged differently — for example, under broader pharmaceutical or botanical-extract codes — or whether customer demand exists through informal request-for-quote or blanket-order channels outside formal RFP/RFQ notice cycles.
